The difference between casement window and sliding window
1. The sliding window is opened to both sides, and can only be opened at most half, and must be more than two. The casement window can be opened in multiple directions of up, down, left and right, and can be opened up to 100%.
The casement window basically has two fixed points, which are generally combined with the window frame by a hinge and rotated by the window glass to open. It can be divided into two types: side opening window and hanging window. The side opening window is opened horizontally. It is generally used for the main window with larger area, and is rotated to the left or right. The hanging window is opened vertically, and is pushed up or down, and is mostly used for ventilation in a kitchen, a room, and the like. There are also new type of casement windows that allow for two-way opening.
The advantages of the casement window are: large area, good sealing, sound insulation, heat preservation and impermeability, excellent safety and anti-theft performance, and convenient cleaning.
The disadvantage is that it takes up more space, so if the space is small or not enough, it is not suitable for the casement window. Moreover, the window width is small, and the visibility of the field of view is limited. It also takes up space outside the wall and is easily damaged. If the quality of the product is not enough, leakage may occur.
What is a sliding window
The sliding window is the window that the window glass can push open on the sliding rail. The utility model has the advantages that the indoor and outdoor spaces are not occupied in the state of switching, the opening is flexible, the appearance is beautiful, the price is economical, the sealing is good, and the structure is relatively simple. The sash is in a good state of stress and is not easily damaged. With large pieces of glass, it not only increases indoor lighting, but also improves the overall shape of the building.
The disadvantage is that the ventilation area is limited, because at most only 50% of the sash can be opened, and the airtightness is relatively poor when closed, and if it is rainy, the window must be closed, and ventilation cannot be performed, and the cleaning is not very convenient.
